	Stripping the Gurus—A Wild and Crazy Wisdom Guy
		As the eleventh incarnation of the Trungpa Tulku, the milk-fed sage was raised from his childhood to be the supreme abbot of the Surmang monasteries in eastern Tibet.
		Trungpa may have “partied harder” in Europe and the States, but he was already breaking plenty of rules, without censure, back in Tibet and India.
		Following that noble display of high realization, Trungpa had the couple forcibly stripped by his henchmen—against the protests of both Dana and one of the few courageous onlookers, who was punched in the face and called a “son of a bitch” by Trungpa himself for his efforts.

		It was not the first time that such an experience had presented itself to the monk, and he was unalarmed by the fact that he could understand perfectly the languages, and knew the names of the speakers, and that the interlocutors could also understand one another.
		The pleasant thing about such conversations, thought Chogyam Trungpa, was that the dead could speak with the living, although those still living on the mundane material plane would usually only become aware of the content of the conversation in dreams.
		Chogyam Trungpa thought of the first lesson of his first teacher, who had taught him that dreams, and the messages received in meditation, contained 'Big Truths' which were lost to most people in the sensory delusion of mundane life.

		Trungpa Rinpoche provides a direct and experiential picture of the tantric world, explaining the importance of self-existing energy, the mandala...

		Trungpa's "Cutting through Spiritual Materialism" seems to be more widely known and more often recommended, but I like "The Myth of Freedom" even better, and I think it's a more suitable book for folks who are new to meditation.
		Trungpa definitely takes the "romance" out of spiritual practice and reveals it to be as mundane as going to work, eating dinner, or taking a bath.
		Trungpa uses clear language to explain the path to enlightenment, and the ways in which we sabotage ourselves.

		Midal is at his best in mapping out the multi-faceted training ground that Chogyam Trungpa seemed to invent wherever he went, adapting and mixing old forms in innovative ways.

		This new compilation of essays and interviews examining the life and teachings of Chogyam Trungpa was edited by Trungpa biographer Fabrice Midal.
		Although I watched the door to Trungpa’s office dutifully, nobody left or entered for the next two hours, so when I was finally escorted in at 6:00p.m., I was thoroughly confused.
		For the next couple of hours, Trungpa engaged me in a rambling discussion about my “practice” that was nothing short of the most astounding spiritual diagnosis, and then prognosis, I could have imagined.
